Are they really not doing Hogan as Shep Ramsey? No interest in this thing btw - and it looks like Mattel messed up the colouring, as usual.

Cool idea, but I’d rather it was Andre from the Greatest American Hero instead. This is probably the second coolest figure in a series full of figures destined for the Clearance aisle (aside from the Piper, which is awesome). This one will probably sell better than Cena and Rock. The lack of Hogans are a huge missed opportunity. They should at least do Rip from NHB and Shep Ramsay. I’m good weigh without Hogan in a tutu from Mr. Nanny.

Since the six million dollar man show was from Universal, I guess a B.A. Baracus from the A-Team could've been possible if they continued the line.
Anyway cool figure but a little before my time. I remember a lot of the older kids having the Kenner figure with the removable chest piece showing electronic bits (maybe thats what's underneath this figure lol) but no real connection to this.

Same here. Most fans who were kids when hulks rock n wrestling was out and the first few wrestlemanias were too young to be watching six million dollar man. It did look cool and has some allure to it. That's why I wanted to have it. Not because I was a fan of the series. I still haven't seen that episode. |

There was an episode where a lot of wrestlers appeared on the A-Team. Be cool to have a series of just that. The A-Team S4E7 Body Slam |

Hulk Hogan as Rip from No Holds Barred seems like a missed opportunity.

Looks like this will be difficult to stand up with the furry feet.

Looks awesome, but not as a wrestling figure. It's cool enough to own as a stand alone figure though!

I wonder why there has never a character like this appeared in WWF or WCW. Seems like a no brainer for the 80s... what a missed opportunity.

I can appreciate them making this and other obscure stuff like The Zodiac and The Goon. It is awesome to get stuff that you never thought would be made in a million years. However, it is frustrating to see the amount of effort that goes into a figure like this or The Zodiac, but they cannot make one great Bret Hart figure.

If they do Bonesaw it’ll probably be a SDCC exclusive and likely be altered to be an “inspired by” version with no reference to the name Bonesaw McGraw or Spider-Man. |

I need a Jimmy King Elite from this line. A Santa Big Show from Jingle All The Way, and of course Bonesaw.
